         of Operations

The following presents Management's discussion and analysis of the consolidated
financial condition and results of operations of Peoples Financial Corporation
and Subsidiaries (the Company) for the quarters ended March 31, 1999 and 1998.
These comments highlight the significant events and should be considered in
combination with the Consolidated Financial Statements included in this report
on Form 10-Q.

OVERVIEW


Net income for the quarter ended March 31, 1999, was $1,459,000, compared with
$4,360,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 1998. This decrease of $2,901,000 is
primarily attributable to the fact that the Company realized a gain of

1998, as a result of the sale of one of its branch locations.


The significant development during the first quarter of 1999 was the sale of
other real estate at a gain, for book purposes, of $293,000, net of taxes.

  The following schedule compares financial highlights for the quarters ended

FEDERAL FUNDS SOLD
Federal funds sold were $48,950,000 at March 31, 1999, as compared with
$13,050,000 at March 31, 1998, as a result of the management of the bank
subsidiary's liquidity position.

LOANS
Loans increased $25,641,000 at March 31, 1999, as compared with March 31, 1998,
as a result of the increase in loan demand in the Company's trade area during
the last 24 months.

BANK PREMISES AND EQUIPMENT
Bank premises and equipment increased $5,871,000 at March 31, 1999, as compared
with March 31, 1998, primarily as the result of the construction of a new branch
facility in Gulfport.

OTHER ASSETS
Other assets decreased $3,400,000 at March 31, 1999, as compared with March 31,
1998, due to the fact that at March 31, 1998, the Company had recorded a
receivable of $4,037,000 related to the sale of bank premises which was
structured as a like-kind exchange for tax purposes.

DEPOSITS
Total deposits increased $35,992,000 at March 31, 1999, as compared with March
31, 1998. Significant increases or decreases in total deposits from quarter to
quarter are anticipated by Management as customers in the casino industry and
county and municipal areas reallocate their resources periodically. As discussed
above, the Company has managed its funds including planning the timing of
investment maturities so as to achieve appropriate liquidity.

FEDERAL FUNDS PURCHASED AND SECURITIES SOLD UNDER AGREEMENTS TO REPURCHASE
Federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreements to repurchase
increased $35,664,000 at March 31, 1999, as compared with March 31, 1998, as the
result of the introduction of a non-deposit product during 1998.

SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY AND CAPITAL ADEQUACY
Strength, security and stability have been the hallmark of the Company since its
founding in 1985 and of its bank subsidiary since its founding in 1896. A strong
capital foundation is fundamental to the continuing prosperity of the Company
and the security of its customers and shareholders. One measure of capital
adequacy is the primary capital ratio which was 15.13% at March 31, 1999, as
compared with 16.06% at March 31, 1998. These ratios are well above the
regulatory minimum of 6.00%. Management continues to emphasize the importance of
maintaining the appropriate capital levels of the Company.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

NET INTEREST INCOME
Net interest income, the amount by which interest income on loans, investments
and other interest earning assets exceeds interest expense on deposits and other
borrowed funds, is the single largest component of the Company's income.
Management's objective is to provide the largest possible amount of income while
balancing interest rate, credit, liquidity and capital risk.



                                 Page 13 of 19

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES
Management continuously monitors the Company's relationships with its loan
customers, especially those in concentrated industries such as seafood, gaming
and hotel/motel, and their direct and indirect impact on its operations. A
thorough analysis of current economic conditions and the quality of the loan
portfolio are conducted on a quarterly basis. These analyses are utilized in the
computation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. During the period
from 1993 until 1998, the Company had not recorded a provision for loan losses.
Beginning in January 1999, the Company began providing $10,000 for loan losses
on a monthly basis and expects to continue to do so throughout 1999. This action
was implemented primarily in response to the large increase in volume of the
loan portfolio and does not indicate a deterioration of its quality.

OTHER INCOME
During the first quarter of 1998, the Company realized a gain of $5,083,000 for
book purposes as the result of the sale of one its branch locations, as
mentioned previously in the Overview.

OTHER EXPENSE
Other expense increased $724,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 1999, as
compared with the quarter ended March 31, 1998, largely as the result of
expenses relating to the computer conversion.

LIQUIDITY

Liquidity represents the Company's ability to adequately provide funds to
satisfy demands from depositors, borrowers and other commitments by either
converting assets to cash or accessing new or existing sources of funds.
Management monitors these funds requirements in such a manner as to satisfy
these demands and provide the maximum earnings on its earning assets. Deposits,
payments of principal and interest on loans, proceeds from maturities of held to
maturity securities and earnings on held to maturity securities are the
principal sources of funds for the Company. At March 31, 1999, cash and due from
banks, investment securities and federal funds sold were 55% of total deposits,
as compared with 47% at March 31, 1998.
